Who is my true brother? We cannot always tell whether or not a man believes in Christ; but we can always ask -- Christianity is not a secret society. And if a man says he loves the Lord, why should I not treat him as my brother? If I should happen to welcome one who is only a professing Christian, who has not given his heart to Christ, what harm has it done? I will have offered the love of God to one who rejects it, and I will have given a few hours of my life to an enemy -- but our Father holds out His hands all day long to a rebellious people, and our Savior gave His life for me when I was His enemy.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7313</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The U.S. case is more important because of the economic implications, ... a nice psychological boost but you can't extrapolate ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/31183]]></link><description><![CDATA[The U.S. case is more important because of the economic implications, ... a nice psychological boost but you can't extrapolate the U.S. ruling from this because of the different legal standards.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/31183</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[An editor is someone who separates the wheat from the chaff and then prints the chaff. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/13354]]></link><description><![CDATA[An editor is someone who separates the wheat from the chaff and then prints the chaff.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/13354</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[History knows no resting place and no plateaus. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/19482]]></link><description><![CDATA[History knows no resting place and no plateaus.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/19482</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I do now remember the poor creature, small beer. -King Henry IV.

Now are our brows bound with victorious wreaths, Our bruised arms hung up for monuments, Our stern alarums changed to merry meetings, Our dreadful marches to delightful measures. Grim-visaged war hath smoothed his wrinkled front; And now, instead of mounting barbed steeds To fright the souls of fearful adversaries, He capers nimbly in a lady's chamber To the lascivious pleasing of a lute. But I, that am not shaped for sportive tricks, Nor made to court an amorous looking-glass; I, that am rudely stamped, and want love's majesty To strut before a wanton ambling nymph; I, that am curtailed of this fair proportion, Cheated of feature by dissembling nature, Deformed, unfinished, sent before my time Into this breathing world, scarce half made up, And that so lamely and unfashionable That dogs bark at me as I halt by them,— Why, I, in this weak piping time of peace, Have no delight to pass away the time, Unless to spy my shadow in the sun. -King Richard III.
